They wont become like Chelsea because they don't need the financial backing, also Abramovich is putting in, Glazer wants to take out.

Stu

Aight i do a brief one.
He has a purpose and an aim, he knows a LOT about the football club and their plans. He also knows about the English premiership and its history.
He is a dick, BUT, a good businessman, he made a high money move with a big intention, putting a lot of things at risk. Look a little deeper than what you read in the newspapers.

You think a successful businessman is gonna make such an investment without researching the history of the club they play. He will have had to look at the success of each team, especially the contenders for the premiership. Also how the financial status to predict how its going to go in the future. Anyone who thinks he is in it for the money is real narrow minded.

Theres no need to. Pick up any book or go to any website that has info about the Prem and it'll show you who has ran the league the last couple of years or so. There is no comparison, therefore no need to research. Malc just bought the richest if not biggest club in the world in hope they will carry on doing what they are currently doing. Bringing in the dollar.

Anyone who thinks he is in it for the money is real narrow minded.

Why would anyone buy a random club of some sport they don't even have an interest for let alone support. Especially one with such a history of success such as Man Utd. What more glory could they want? Manchester United is the richest club in the world. Fact. If he wasn't in it for the money then why didn't he buy some pile of shit like Leeds and get them out of debt and see them to success (which would be a challenge)?

You could ask any third world mother fucker who the best teams in England are and they'd would reel off Man Utd, Arsenal and Liverpool. Maybe Chelsea now. Its not hard to look at who's pwn3d shit in the last decade or so, any website, book or whatever will tell you.

Wooo finally a good conversation going.

There is no comparison, therefore no need to research. Malc just bought the richest if not biggest club in the world in hope they will carry on doing what they are currently doing. Bringing in the dollar.

You think a book or website knows the inner depth's of a football club? Seriously man, NOBODY invests so much money into a club without thorough research. Anyway, to buy the club he would have needed a very detailed business plan, which he would have presented to the current owners. Just like applying for a bank loan you need to prove you have a plan and jusitfy how its gonna work, its not like he walked in and said..hmm im gonna buy the club.

Because he is guaranteed a certain level of success. Money will be a factor obviously like any other sort of investment. To get his name globally known and compared to with some of the best businessman is one point. You saying he hasnt got a challenge infront of him? For the first time in 10 years Man.Utd have admitted to having problems scoring goals. They arent in a stable position as they were for the past years, also the pressure is on to keep up to the expectations and challenge for the title. Glazier will be taking a big challenge.

I didnt mean their final position, again all you looking at is the league table. Im talking about the financial side of each club. And how their position (compared to the rest of the league) has developed or changed.

No shit sherlock, nobody invests in a buisness without having a buisness plan. Not even a fucking kebab shop. I was simply statinf that he doesn't have to do a lot of research to see that they have been financially stable and topping the tables for a long time.

Thats not a challenge to score more goals. All he has to do is buy a couple of strikers, winger(s) and perhaps an attacking midfielder. For the richest club in the world, this is no challenge. And its not hard to keep a stable position when you're the richest club in the world.

Not only do Man Yoo (still) have the monopoly in the English Leagues but also WorldWide. Fuck the league table. You think people rock Real Madrid shirts because they care about positions in the league? Its because they market theirselves in a way that globally people know who plays for them and have possibly the biggest names in football playing for them. Man Utd market themselves in a slightly different way.

This is correct, however i was just saying that the initial post you made, was like he hasnt put a lot of time and effort in, which i still beleive he has. For an overview, he would have looked at the finanical side of things, but still he would have had to go deeper into it than that, still he did a lot of work.

In my opinion Man.Utd are at their weakest point from the past 10 years. Giggs isnt the impact he used to be (lets be honest). Scholes and Keane again dont really impose the dreaded midfield title they used to have. Its just that they need to start looking a little into the future, Ronaldo was a good signing (too much money spent though), and Kieran Richardson is gonna be fire in a couple of years. The goalkeeper as well? Released Carroll and they only got Howard. They need to look at the squad as a whole and improve every area IMO.[/QUOTE}

I can agree totally with that. But looking at statistics, fans want to see trophy's to names. This year they didnt win anything, people will be expecting at least 1 next year. A name like Man.Utd should guarantee trophy's, if not then they have had a bad year. Marketting they are sorted, but still results on the pitch is a problem.

YDB
02-06-2005, 08:38 PM
Bah, results won't harm their income. I admit their players aint as good as what they have been but they keep looking to add to that by hitting new markets. Tim Howard to try to get the Yanks, Kleberson for the South Americans and now South Korea's most popular athlete Sun something-do-da Park.

The only decent American players are Freddy Adu and Landon Donovan from waht im aware...why would he want to invest in those? Kleberson isnt brilliant, although the South American link is useful.

YDB
02-06-2005, 11:33 PM
Freddy Adu, lmao. Hes like 15 or something now. I remember on TransWorld Sport when they were raving on about him when he was 13. He was playing like U21 at 14 or something! The last I heard he's contracted at Galatasaray (sp.) or something. Every big club in Europe is after his signature. I think he's back in the MLS tho!?

Donovan is above average, does he still play in the MLS or did he move to somewhere like Germany or Belgium?

Kleberson was another marketing ploy IMO. The only other Brazilians in the Prem were Gilberto and Edu. Edu has only just started international with Brazil, but hes off anyways.

Thomas

To Be Honest....

Freddie Adu Isnt THAT Good

It's Only 'Cos Hes 15 and In A Senior League Hes Considered Good

Wayne Rooney At 16 Was 100 Times Better Than Freddie Adu Will Be When He Turns 16

The MLS League (Like The SPL) Is A Joke

I Rate The USA's Eddie Pope Though...Another DC United Player

Kleberson Has Done Fuck All

Ok in simple terms, Glazer has his own personal coffers he dipped into to buy Utd. Man Utd have seperate accounts etc which can't be touched unless he makes a profit.
